Happy, Healthy New Year to my family and friends!
I have been asked several times about the china in my header, so I decided to use it for our New Years Eve dinner...we no longer go out for over-priced, mediocre, at best, dinners, that is for rookies! The china is Noritake Luray, circa 1935. It is white, cream, aqua, tan, yellow, green, pink and a tiny bit of indigo, all with a gold rim. I am still looking for several pieces...I know they are out there somewhere!
I started with a white damask tablecloth (which I should have run an iron over, by the looks) so that the china pattern would show up nicely. Added some solid dark aqua napkins instead of using the ones that go with the tablecloth.
I could only find 2 gold charger plates, so I am using a large aqua dinner plate as them, instead.
Next is the Luray dinner plate.
Next is the Luray square salad plate.
I added the dessert plate, which is the same shade of white and cream, from the same era as the Luray and goes very nicely. It is Hutschenreuther china, circa 1925-1939, some pieces which were used last week, also.
The final layer is the cream soup bowl. The underplate is a Hutschenreuther saucer as I only have 2 underplates so far and this table is set for four!
The stemware is aqua Noritake Sweet Swirl, circa 1988-1994.
I have once again used my favorite pattern, International Silver's Frontenac, circa 1903, sterling.
For the centerpiece I used the 16-inch oval platter and 3 gold beaded pillar candles.
